tion saturday, il prepareda lengthy
mcmD rial TO Governor Oglcsby.
The memorial rolstes to the govern.
ment OF the county and shows at
great lcugth how the corrupt gang
that had controlled the county boards
Tor years past found 1t possible to rob
the tax payer and then aeks the gov
ernor to use his Iutucncc with the
legislature to have II law enacted to
cover deficiencies. One thing needed
according To the memorial is q statu.
tory provision foi the appointment Of
all couuty employees. As the law
stands the commissioners themselves.
and of course all other otliciale. who
are chosen 10y people. are the only
legal officials of the county aud thus
are the only ones who can
bc brought to task for the crime of
bribery. Iho wardcns OF the various
county institutions aud the army of
employees under them have no statu-
tory existence. we tind,' SAID the
grand jury III talking of the inquisi-
ZION, "that Mardcns McGarriglc. VAR
nell, aud even Frey, were complicated
in innumorabl1 cases of bribery. We
mad proof against them proof that

unable 10 indict them for crime, be-
cause the law, rs the states attorney
cDnstruos II, d Il not cover their casos.
Now, tor instance. Robinson. the
grocer, would send u consignment of
goods 20 the hospital, with bill or
list, showing the weight of each
article aud the storckccper
or the warden himself, would
re-woigh everything, check mp the
Rrocers list and then certify the bill
to be ON, oven though everything
was found to be lighter from 10 to 30
per cent, of the weight charged for.
ltobinson. in his confession, shows he
was doing this sort of thing ali tho
time, and also that he WAS paving the
wardcns TO OK his bills. We CON
slider that the waidcns were rs guilty
oi bribery as The grocer. but legally
they could not be held Tor that OtlCmse.
However, we lad recourse ON the con-
spiracy law. That proved TO be
broad enough to cover every body

Sherman's Quiet Work.

Senator Sherman is making quiet
but forceful effort to secure united
delegation from Ohio. lie has reached
the conclusion that his last hope for the
Presidency hinges upon his being nomi-
mated in IS, and he has told his friends
OF his conclusion. Next to Mr.. Blaine
he fears his increasing years more than
any Of the possible candidates. IL his
canvass he has, or had, the active sup
port Of Murat Halsteai and the Cincin-
natl Commercial Gazette, the leading
Republican organ of the State, but Hal-
stead has gone to Europe now, for pur-
poses OF policy and pleasure, the feeling
tween the two factions in his party be-
Il clearly on the increase. Sherman
also has the avowed support Of Foraker,
whom he does not trust, and the secret
aid OF some OF the Democratic traders.
In two county conventions, III which
resolutions faroring his candidacy were
introduced, the Blaine-Foraker men
tabled the resolutions by large maiorities.
He is giving his personal attention to
his canvass, his headquarters being at
his home in Mansfield. It is even said
that he viii go to the State convention
as delegate to care for his interests IN
that body. His age is 81.

About SunstrokeS.

An eminent Chicago physician has
been discussing the causes and the na-
ture of sunstrokes. He states that the
mortality in cases Of srcstSGoke is twenty
per cent, and when death does not
ensue the patient is never able after
wards to stand any heat, and sometimes
the approach Of the hot season drives
them insane OF kills them. He further
says that man may be sunstruck IN the
shade, and at night. "Heatstruck' would
be better word for such cases. Pros
tration is brought about by disordered
health, dissipation, fatigue, or anything
that depresses the nerve power. The
victim may be affected in different ways.
There may be complete failure Of the
hearts action, resulting in a dead faint.
The nerve centres may receive shock
causing rapid failing of respirat;;o1 and
circulation. Sometimes the nerves Of
circulation :.1e completely paralyzed.
Methods of treatment must be accord
ing to the condition of the patient. Of
course, in all cases the patient should be
placed in the shade and MS clothing
loosened. If he has hectic fever. the
ice treatment should be resorted to, with
camphor Internally and ammonia in
hypodermie injections. II he can stand
it, dose of a teaspoonful of aromatic
spirits of ammonia should be admins
tered in half tumbler OF water every
few minutes. In the other extreme,
where the fatal faintness is prese2tt, With
a low temperature and very depressed
condition cf the heart, an immersion in
tepid water containing mustard is good
thing. The dose of ammonia should
not be forgotten.
When people are in good health and
spirits and perspiring freely they need
not be much afraid OF heat. But when
they are little out of gear they cannot
be too careful. Ali extremes of heat are
dangerous, but damp heat is much worse
than dry heat. The thing to dc at this
season is to be temperate in every sense
of the word. Keep in the shade if pos
sible, and in wel-ventilated place,

Over in Brooklyn, where the centre OF
the storm passed, electric flames appear
ed about the buildings, and the tele-
phone bells in various stations rang con-
stantly for from fifteen to twenty min
utes. When the bells became quiet it
was found that the telephones could not
be used.
While the storm was at its height and
the rain was coming down in torrents
there were two intense claps of thunder
in quick succession. The noise was I'M
mediately followed BY queer phencme-
ron. People who were IN the stores
and under the awnings about the corner
of Troy and Fulton avenues were aston
ished to see a shower of dark colored
Jumps of various sizes fall apparently
from The sky, and on striking the pave
ment give out fash of flame as they
were pulverized. That is, several wit
resses vouch for the flashes Of flame,
and they are sure they were not spi.-shes
Of water.
One lump, larger apparently thar the
rest, struck q shade tree ard then fsiI to
the street. It was picked up by Ten-
turesome citizen and carried into u.
Kreitzer's drug store.
It looked Ike verdigris or Like d:sin-
tegrased blue ritriol. On the sides that
rested on the pavement and the place
where it struck the tree there We're evl-
dences of fusion.
The stuff has slight metallic and a
stringent taste, is lightish green IN color,
not crystalline, but ike conpacted. 1t
burns rather re2aily, with a green fame,
and cannot be fred Ly percussion. The
big chunk was broken up and distributed
amon5 the bystan&ers. A Sun reporter
took piece Of it to the Western Union
Telegraph Company's main battery
room, where tons Of sulphate of copper
are used. The men there were Of diverse
opinions as to what It vas. One man
thought it might be Paris green, bit the
majority were Of the opinion that i was
some form OF sulphate OF copper, with
perhaps trace OF zinc IN it. The SUI
phate OF copper that had been used in a
cell and worn out Was found to resemble
the substance that fell from the clouds
or somewhere, but the sulphate of cop
per still had its caustic taste. At Hud-
nuts drug store the usual tests for de-
termining copper fsifed to have any
off,, ~ on this body.
af.or ~. stuff had been broken up and
distributed among the ;ta9s people .as,sas al the
corner Of Troy and IL. .neaGe5 s.e"l -
several pieces changed hands at = 'D- 80
to 50 cents piece. For one very large
piece with M IS Of fusion on it S. was
offered and refused. a small globe of it
was found in Herkimer avenue, just be-
yond Troy.
Of course, it may have come from
some mans roof or have been caught up
from refuse heap by the wind.
